QLD Form 2 Vendor Disclosure — Title + Planning Pack

The Property Law Act 2023 introduced Form 2 vendor disclosure on 1 August 2025. Sellers must now provide statutory disclosure of property matters including planning information. Get the title + planning pack to support your Form 2.

QLD property sellers, real estate agents, conveyancers and solicitors managing Form 2 vendor disclosure under the Property Law Act 2023.

What is Form 2 vendor disclosure?

The Property Law Act 2023 (Qld) commenced on 1 August 2025, introducing a new vendor disclosure regime for residential property sales. Sellers (and their agents/lawyers) are now required to provide buyers with a Form 2 statutory disclosure pack covering specified property matters before contracts of sale are signed.

This is a material change from the previous regime under the Property Law Act 1974, which had limited statutory disclosure obligations. Form 2 brings QLD broadly in line with NSW's Section 10.7 disclosure and Victoria's Section 32 vendor statement, though with QLD-specific content requirements.

Failure to provide Form 2 (or providing one with material errors) gives the buyer enforceable remedies including the right to terminate the contract within specified periods and to recover deposits. Real estate agents and conveyancers are bringing Form 2 compliance into standard practice across all QLD residential transactions.

What Form 2 must include

Form 2 covers a defined set of statutory disclosure matters. The exact regulations specify the items and format; the practical content includes:

  • Title information — current Register Search Statement showing registered ownership, encumbrances, caveats, and dealing references.
  • Planning information — the property's planning zone, applicable overlays, and any current or pending DA on the property.
  • Encumbrance information — registered easements, covenants, restrictions affecting use or development of the land.
  • Body corporate information (where the property is in a community title scheme) — community management statement, levies, by-laws.
  • Building / structural information — pool safety certification (where applicable), insurance claims history (some categories).
  • Heritage and contaminated land status — if relevant.

How our Title Search supports Form 2

Our QLD Title Search delivers the title-level component of Form 2 — the most critical element for compliance:

  • Current Title Search (Register Search Statement) — $34. Required for every Form 2.
  • Plan of Subdivision — $36. Required where dealings reference the registered plan.
  • Registered dealings (covenants, easements, body corporate CMSs) — $75 each. The dealings on title that the Title Search references — needed for full disclosure.
  • AI plain-English summary — included free with every order. Translates dealings into language suitable for buyer communication.
  • Same-business-day delivery before 4pm AEST.

Beyond the title — planning component

Form 2 also requires planning information. Our free QLD Council Finder gets sellers and their agents to the right council planning report tool — typically the Brisbane Property Lot Report, Logan PD Hub, Sunshine Coast Development.i, etc. — for the planning information component.

Our forthcoming QLD Property Snapshot will consolidate the planning component into a single AI-generated PDF — handy when your seller is in a council with limited online tools, or when you want a more readable disclosure document for buyers.

Sellers and agents using our combined Title + Council Planning + Property Snapshot pack have a substantially complete Form 2 disclosure foundation, with the body corporate / pool safety / building components added separately.

Practical workflow for agents and conveyancers

From observed Form 2 implementation across QLD agencies and conveyancing practices over the first 9 months of operation:

  • Order Title Search at the listing stage — well before contract. Lets you identify covenants/easements that may affect saleability.
  • Order applicable dealings as Title Search reveals them. Don't wait for the contract to be drafted.
  • Use the AI summary in your appraisal / inspection notes to surface restrictions to buyers verbally before contract.
  • Council planning report — order at listing or have agent obtain via the council tool directly.
  • Body corporate / pool safety / building components — typically managed by conveyancer at contract drafting.
  • Cross-check Form 2 content against the buyer's pre-contract enquiries to catch any gaps.

Statutory framework

The Property Law Act 2023 (Qld) replaced the Property Law Act 1974 effective 1 August 2025. Form 2 is the statutory vendor disclosure form prescribed under the Act. The exact items required are specified in the regulations and may be amended from time to time.

QLD title information is governed by the Land Title Act 1994 and administered by Titles Queensland. The Title Search itself returns the legally definitive Register Search Statement.

Real estate agents are bound by the Property Occupations Act 2014 (Qld) which incorporates Form 2 disclosure obligations into their dealings with sellers and buyers.

Frequently asked questions

When did Form 2 vendor disclosure commence?
1 August 2025 — that's when the Property Law Act 2023 commenced, replacing the Property Law Act 1974. All QLD residential property sales from that date onward require Form 2 vendor disclosure.
Does Form 2 apply to commercial property sales?
Form 2 vendor disclosure as introduced by the Property Law Act 2023 applies to specified residential property sales. Commercial property sales have separate disclosure obligations under different statutory and contractual frameworks. Always confirm the specific transaction type with your conveyancer or solicitor.
What happens if Form 2 is missing or wrong?
Failure to provide a compliant Form 2 disclosure exposes the seller to buyer remedies including the right to terminate the contract within specified periods (typically before settlement). Material errors or omissions in Form 2 — particularly around encumbrances, dealings or planning controls — create the same risk. Real estate agents and conveyancers are bringing Form 2 compliance into standard practice.
Can I use this Title Search for the Form 2 title component?
Yes. Our QLD Title Search returns the official Register Search Statement from Titles Queensland — the same document required by Form 2. The bundled AI summary is your tool for translating the dealings into buyer-facing communication; the actual Form 2 attaches the original Title and dealings.
Do I need ALL the dealings or just some?
Form 2 requires disclosure of registered encumbrances affecting the property — meaning all material covenants, easements, registered restrictions and CMSs (for community title schemes). Older minor matters that have lapsed or been removed don't need disclosure. The AI summary helps identify which dealings are material; consult your conveyancer for the final scope decision.
Where can I find the actual Form 2 template?
Form 2 is prescribed by regulation under the Property Law Act 2023. Industry bodies (REIQ, QLS) publish template forms and practice notes. Our Title + Planning pack provides the statutory underlying documents that the Form 2 attaches/summarises; the form itself is filled by the seller's conveyancer or solicitor.
How does Form 2 compare to NSW Section 10.7 or VIC Section 32?
Form 2 is QLD's first comprehensive vendor disclosure regime — broadly analogous to NSW Section 10.7 (planning certificate) plus elements of VIC Section 32 (vendor statement). The specific content requirements differ; cross-state experience helps but isn't a direct substitute. We service all three regimes — choose your state when ordering.
